What happened

Food Standards Agency awarded this contract to Fera Science Ltd. worth £199,464 on 29 May 2026. The contract runs until 31 Mar 2028.

Description

This research project aims to increase the Food Standards Agency's understanding about the concentration levels of PFAS in food products consumed in the UK and includes those grown or reared in the UK. The data will help to reduce some of the current data gaps in the evidence base. This will therefore enable a more accurate

assessment of the risk to human health as well as identify any issues to take through

the FSA’s risk analysis process and support future policy requirements/decision

making.
